English Pronunciation For Brazilian Portuguese Natives

English Pronunciation For Brazilian Portuguese Natives

A lot of my students come from Brazil. Something they most often tell me is that they are not confident or are afraid to be misunderstood because their pronunciation is too Brazilian and therefore not good enough. We comment about pronunciation mistakes in the lesson, but briefly; it is almost never the focus of what we do. In this course, I gathered all useful information I collected from our lessons over years as well as many things I learned as an English student at the university. Basically, I said everything that I ever wanted to say about pronunciation with my Brazilian students.

After completing this course, you will need to keep practicing, but you will have all the knowledge and tools you need to sound less like a Brazilian Portuguese native and more like an English native speaker. I say this because a course very similar to this one was what made this possible for me personally. If you think my English accent sounds good, give this course a try. My mother tongue is Serbian and I have never been to an English speaking country.
